Yograj Bhat and Arjun Janya join hands first time

The composer will score music for Gaalipata 2, the first combination of the two

Composer Arjun Janya will score music for a Yograj Bhat directed film for the first time. The two are coming together for Gaalipata 2, a multistarrer with Sharan, Pawan Kumar (U-Turn director) and Rishi. Janya has just reached the milestone of 100 films as a composer and Yograj Bhat’s 12th film as director, Panchatantra is on the verge of release.

Most of Bhat’s earlier films had music by Mano Murthy and the more recent ones are by V Harikrishna. Sandeep Chowta has also scored music for one of his films (Ranga SSLC). “To be working with Arjun is a pleasure. I was regularly making films and he was scoring music for so many films. But somehow we never got together. Gaalipata 2 therefore is special for both of us,” Bhat said.

It was not fate that brought Bhat and Arjun together. The film is produced by Mahesh Danannavar, who is also a friend of Arjun. He wanted Arjun to be the composer and Bhat had no problem with it.

The film has a unique combination of Sharan, Pawan Kumar and Rishi. The other cast and crew are in the process of being put together. The original had Ganesh, Diganth and Rajesh Krishnan. Gaalipata 2 is not a sequel but a film with a similar youthful theme, the director said. Shooting for the film is expected to start in March. Mahesh, who is from Karnataka has established his business in Gujarat and also produced the hit Gujarati film Shu Thayu?
